  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific payroll or benefits process you are working with. There may be specific guidelines on how to define and use data structures.
  Testing: After making changes, thoroughly test the payroll or benefits processing to ensure that the error is resolved and that there are no further issues.
